Here's a Lad who doesn't understand the term "economy of expression." He's the sort for whom the term "TL:DR" (Too Long: Don't Read" was invented.
I've changed many of the names involved, mainly substituting Japanese warship names, except for an Italian businessman...
The scammers' emails are date-stamped; my comments are in bold. Passages of particularly nauseating prose are italicised.
23 March 2021 ATTENTION: May the blessing of God almighty be upon you and your family and grant you the wisdom to understand our situation and how much we need your assistance. I know that this proposal will come to you as a surprise because we have not met before either physical or through correspondence. I am Ibuki Michael Junior, the first son of Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki, former Governor of Delta State (Oil State) in Nigeria who is been arrested and detained in UK since 2012, by London police, for case of money laundry which he did not commit, and my mother has been sentence to five years' Incarceration (HOUSE ARREST), also in London UK. My parents are been punish for what they did not do, this was organized/arranged by my FATHER’S POLITICAL ENEMIES (OPPONENT) headed by the president of Nigeria, President Goodluck Jonathan Ebere and his former boss President Olusegun Obasanjo who sees my father as a trait to their political ambition and vow to deal with my parents, the reason for this is that, the new President Muhammadu Buhari, so much believed that it was my father who objected/protested against his SWEARING IN as the acting President of Nigeria, when his late Boss President Umaru Musa Ya’adua (LATE), was hospitalized in SAUDI-ARABIA hospital for his KIDNEY PROBLEM, before his death and President Muhammadu Buhari is determined to have his own pound of flesh now that is in power. Since the arrest, detention and imprisonment of my parent, our family has been under massive victimization and restriction of movement, our bank accounts both local and foreign account known to them has been frozen by this Present Nigeria Government, also some huge amount of money both foreign and local currencies in cash were recovered from our apartment was seized, hoping that our family will be starved to death. When my father (Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki), was in office as the Executive Governor of Delta State with the help of a German business man who later died in a plane crash, he was able to move some MILLIONS OF DOLLARS in cash totally US$80 Million through a diplomatic arrangement (Service) to a Finance Company outside Nigeria for safe keeping, the Finance Company has recently contacted us to come and claim our fund (Money) in their custody. With the directive from my father, owner of the fund (Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki), through our family lawyer (Attorney), I personally appeal to you with the mercies of God almighty to assist us in the clearing of this fund from the Finance Company to a safe Bank Account for INVESTMENT PURPOSE in your country which you will help us manage, as our fund manager, since my parent cannot do anything now that they are under ARREST/IMPRISONMENT and I cannot do anything now, that I am been monitored. It may interest you to know that recently a similar transaction was carried out with one Mr. Havelock Vetinari, Director of Molitor Construction (S.P.A)ITALY, after the agreement between us in which he was to have 25% of the fund the US$20 Million, we asked him to help us claim from the Finance Company, so that we can use to feed and fight for my father’s release, the DOCUMENT’S where signed by him and my father’s Lawyer at the Finance Company (Attorney)and he was paid the US$20 Million out of US$80 Million in the Finance Company, as the beneficiary whose name was written on the signed documents and power of attorney which was also paid into his Italian Bank Account known to him. We were disappointed on the arrival of our family lawyer (Attorney) in Italy, he discovered that Mr. Havelock Vetinari was nowhere to be found, that was how we lost US$20 Million out of US$80 Million and we are now left with US$60 Million in the Finance Company, THIS YOU WILL HELP US TO CLAIM AND INVEST INTO ANY PROFITABLE BUSINESS IN YOUR COUNTRY AS YOU MAY ADVICE US, which you will also help us to manage as our fund manager till our family is free from this problem, since we had no knowledge of doing business. And my father’s plan is to invest this money on REAL ESTATE, STOCK BUSINESS and other profitable business in your country or any part of the world base on your advice. My father spent so many years on politics and if he is release from the detention (Prison), my father will start private business with his fund. My family had agreed to let you have 20% of this fund for whatever assistance you have decided to render. Please be informed that we are going to present you as the NEW BENEFICIARY OF THE FUND US$60 Million, with all the Legal Document’s and power of attorney required in the clearing house, which we will send to you later. Please urgently contact my father’s lawyer (Attorney), Barrister Chokai Chikuma (S.A.N) on his e-mail: REDACTED indicating your interest to help us in clearing the fund from the Finance Company, provide him with your Full Name: ……, Private Tel/Fax No:……, Residential/Postal Address, for him to confidentially discuss the modalities of this transaction with you. Barrister Chokai Chikuma (S.A.N) was in charge of movement of the fund during and after the regime of my father as the Governor of Delta State in Nigeria, Barrister Chokai Chikuma (S.A.N), my father’s lawyer will advise you when you will be meeting with him at the Finance Company where the money (US$60 Million) is being deposited (logged) to claim the fund as the beneficiary of the fund. However please treat this business with top secrecy and be prepared to do more lucrative business with us. Please all we need from you is to assure us that you will never behave like Mr. Havelock Vetinari, the Director of Molitor Construction (S.P.A) ITALY whom we so much trusted and rely on, at the end, he ran away with our US$20 Million on behalf of my family, I am given you 100% assurance that this money is not a drug/terrorist money, and there is no risk involve in this transaction as we have perfected all the modalities in this transaction, and there are legal documents covering this fund. NOTE: Your line of business does not necessary matter in this transaction, all that matters is your honesty and ability to keep our shares for us, when you claim the fund (Money) from the Finance Company for sharing/investment purpose which you will help my family manage as our fund manager till my father regain his freedom from the prison custody. Please trust us as we have already trusted you, for you are the only one that we know that will help my family out of this our Financial Problem. In case you which to ask me any questions, you can only be able to reach me confidentially on my e-mail: REDACTED because all the telephone lines in our resident had been bugged and being monitored, you can only speak to my father’s lawyer Barrister Chokai Chikuma (S.A.N) on phone then he will pass us the message, and please you can check on my father's latest news on AFRICA CONFIDENTIAL : www.africa-confidential.com/profile/id/2595/page/3 Awaiting your urgent and favorable response is highly confidentiality. Best Regards Michael Junior Ibuki First Son.
That was over 1200 words. He gets 17 in reply.
Mr Ibuki Before anything else; did you intend for me to get that email? Regards Malcolm Reynolds
The next one came in at under a thousand words, but the religiosity spiked massively... and sickeningly in parts.
24 March ATTENTION: Mr. Reynolds Yes, the message was meant for you sir and how are you today and your family I hope all is well with you! thanks be to almighty God, I received your email and all that you stated there in, where well understood, indicating your willingness to help us clear the fund from the finance company where the money is being deposited and also invest this money (US$60m) into any profitable business in your country. Mr. Reynolds, you remember that I told you that the fund was deposited by my father (Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki), with the help of a German business man who is now late (Dead). It is for this reason that we seek for your assistance to stand and claim the fund as the German business man who deposited the fund. I can see from your email that you are ready to help my family, thanks for your co-operation and may Almighty God bless you for accepting to assist my poor and needy family out of this our present financial predicament I am a true Christian by birth, I swear by almighty GOD you and I serve that the fund are there still waiting for clearance. The money was deposited officially there by my father Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki (Detention) through the aid of German business man, so don’t have any fear or doubt in mind and there are document covering the fund which will empower you legally to claim the fund as the beneficiary. This document will be sent to you later. I swear never to be part of any thing that will hurt you or your family as we do this business, I cannot deceive or tell you lie because of money, is against our Christian doctrine, this business is real and legitimate. My father lawyer will legally process, and since all necessary documents covering this fund in our Federal High Court of Justice, with your name as the new Bonafide beneficiary of the fund at the finance company. The documents will give you power to claim the fund (US$60m) which a copy will be forwarded to you by our lawyer. Believe and trust me as your brother and friend for you are my family helper and God’s sent who will bring my family out of this our financial problem. My friend, almighty God I serve did not create my family to be poor and beggars, or almighty God had already blessed my family before my parents was arrested and detain in prison in UK for what they did not do. The arrest and detention of my parents which is the up’s and down of life coupled with the maltreatment of my family by those wicked and heartless Nigeria leaders who don’t want to see the Ibuki’s family survive and progress. They seize my parent’s wealth's, turned our blessing and happiness to sadness, suffering and begging, my family are now beggars for our bank accounts both Local and Foreign had been frozen, we are now left with this (US$60m) with the finance company which is not known to those heartless and wicked Nigeria leaders. Please sir help our family out of this our financial problem for almighty God will bless you for helping our poor and needy family that has no hope and happiness in life.

Chikuma (S.A.N) will perfect everything officially, The finance company will present to you documents covering that fund to sign as the beneficiary and our family lawyer will be there to guide you in the clearing of the fund. My friend forget what people may advice you about our family, Jesus Christ came to the world upon the good works he did on earth, people still talked bad of him and killed him, my friend if they can do that to Christ who am I to be praise? Nobody on earth can please the world. I read how almighty God used Moses to lead the Israelite out of their suffering in the land of Egypt to the promise land. From that portion of the Old Testament, I understand that almighty God can use some body to do his deliverance work as he used Moses in the land of Egypt to the promise land ( CANAAN ), Sir, you are Moses and God sent and in this our family problem. Please call our lawyer (Attorney) on this telephone number REDACTED and his e-mail: REDACTED immediately to give you more information how you will travel to meet with him at the finance company to claim the fund for investment which you will help us manage as our fund manager till my father regain his freedom.

Sir, please kindly forward to me or our lawyer, your full name, your residential/postal address and your telephone number to enable my lawyer file an application to secure all necessary document that will cover the claim of this fund and please also forward to me any of your identification. Awaiting your urgent and favorable response is highly confidentiality. Best Regards Michael Junior Ibuki First Son.
Let's see how this one will take some home truths.
Mr Ibuki I need to make some things clear. First off, you mentioned several times that you want me to invest your money. That's not a wise move. I don't know about investment; I've never done any investing. My career was in the military, not finance. Secondly, you emphasise your religion a great deal. You refer to the "almighy God you and I serve." Fact; I have no religion. I consider myself an atheist. If either of those factors would be an issue, please let me know. Regards Malcolm Reynolds
25 March ATTENTION: Mr. Reynolds, Sir, I don't think either both should be an Issues, I agreed that you know nothing about Investment, then I will rather say once you get the money release from the Finance Company then you can deduct the 25% which we promised, then you keep the balance for us Sir. Secondly sir, it doesn't matter if you have no religion sir, since we all served one God, so all that matters is your honesty sir, so you won't let us down just like the Italian business man who ran away with our $20million, after he paid the Finance Company. So, please I will respect the fact that you take, I and my Family from this present predicament we find ourselves because you are our GOD SENT. Awaiting your urgent and favorable response is highly confidentiality. Best Regards Michael Junior Ibuki First Son.
Mr Ibuki I'll forward your first email to Mr Chokai Chikuma with my comments, and see what he says in reply. Regards Malcolm Reynolds
So I forwarded the first email to the lawyer, cc'ing the Lad.
Mr Chikuma Your client Mr Michael Ibuki has contacted me about his father's funds (see below). Please explain further. Regards Malcolm Reynolds
25 March ATTENTION: Mr. Reynolds I received your mail and thanks so much sir for your assistance rendering for my for my family. Best Regards Michael Junior Ibuki First Son.
To be continued.

However, be rest assured that scan copies of all documents secured will be send to you for your perusal as soon as I have them from the federal high court of justice here in Nigeria where the money emanated from, Mr. Reynolds, do note that these documentation and paperwork are necessary to put you in legally as the new owner of the funds ($60million Dollars) that are deposited in my client's name (Mr. James Oyoshio Ibuki), with this FINANCE COMPANY. The action plan is as follows- A) You are to arrange and go over to the finance company after the change of credit/ownership has been effected and forwarded to you. B) Collect/claim the fund that is already in your names, C) You must keep this transaction confidential in order not to expose my client and keep the money in trust for my client and family depending when they can come over to take charge, because His son, Michael Ibuki, explained to me, you had no business idea. All transactions are expected to be concluded before ten (10) days from now but with your total co-operation and support. He has no intention to ask for any financial assistance from you but that notwithstanding, there may be some obligations that might require your candid assistance in the cause of the transaction. Based on this I wish to let you know that we shall together have to put our hands on deck to make sure this is accomplished, I want you to remember that a certain percentage of this fund has been mapped out to offset these expenditures which will be incurred from both sides, and what this means is that whatever you have spent including your telephone bills, flight ticket and hotel accommodation in course of this transaction, will be deducted from that percentage before sharing. I know their financial position is limited for now until you get this money release from the FINANCE COMPANY. So he might not possibly take the responsibility of the transaction alone; this is why he's soliciting for your assistance. In fact he has stopped the children's education because he can no longer afford to pay their school fees, this made me put them in a lower school where the school fees are cheaper and I am responsible for the payment of the school fees. I will employ you to assist him to claim this funds which is their last hope. Furthermore, I must re-assure you that this transaction is 100% risk-free to you as I have done all modalities required in other not to violate any local / international law, Given my experience as a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (S.A.N) and financier attorney with vase knowledge.

Things have slowed down because of an IRL journey in the past few days.
Mal's questions are duly answered. Boldfacing is in the original.
26 March Dear Mr. Malcolm Reynolds, PLEASE FIND BELOW MY ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS: Before anything else, I need to know the following. 1. (Q). What happens if I can't travel to the UK? (A). Then we have to be in contact with the Finance Company and let them know if the money can be transferred to your nominated bank account. 2. (Q). If I do travel to the UK, what happens once I've claimed that fund? (A). After you presented them with the CONSIGNMENT SECRET PIN CODE, which I am going to give you later. They are going to confirm about the consignment in their custody, then the fund will be released to you, so after the release' they're going to accompany you with their company officials to the nearest Bank where the fund will be deposited into your account. So once you've claimed the fund, thing to do firstly, is to deduct all expenses you made, such as your Flight ticket, Hotel Accommodation, Finance Company Expenses, Feeding and Telephone calls while you're in LONDON, and of course 25% which my client family promised you for all your assistance, thereafter you are going to keep the rest of the money for them pending when my client (MR. JAMES IBUKI) regain his freedom from the prison custody. 3. (Q). What expenses might be involved? (A). I was made known by the officials of the Finance Company, the cost of the fund handling/release charges will be 0.1% of the total sum of $60,000,000.00 which equivalent to the total expenses of $60,000. I hope I have answered your questions Mr. Reynolds. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
27 March Dear Mr. Malcolm Reynolds, How are you doing today Mr. Reynolds, Please did you got my last message I sent you? Please call me when you get this message. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
27 March Dear Mr. Malcolm Reynolds, Sorry for the Interruption Mr. Reynolds, I would advise that you send me and email for better Understanding and also send me your direct number so I could be able to call you also, You won't be the only one calling me, It's my duty to call you as well, meanwhile remember all our telephone calls charges we made will be deducted as well, so please send me your direct telephone number and of course your an email. Thanks my friend. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mr Chikuma Two things I talked about. One was the $60,000 fee. The other was what you would be earning from this deal. Malcolm Reynolds
Once again, boldfacing is in the original.
28 March Dear Mr. Malcolm Reynolds, Two things I talked about. MY ANSWERS ARE BELOW JUST AS I SENT MY PREVIOUS EMAIL. (Q). One was the $60,000 fee. (A). Yes, like I said earlier on the phone, that i am not going to let you alone pay the fee of the Finance Company which is $60,000, why? Because we're in this business together, though I have spent a lot since my client (MR. JAMES IBUKI) was imprisoned, So because we are getting to the end of this transaction, I am very ready to support with the fee of the Finance Company, But I don't know for now and I am going to ask you how much would you be able to raise out of the $60,000 fee, so I would know what I will come up with on my side. So like i said earlier also that any charges being incur in respect of this transaction will be deducted before any sharing purpose. I hope I have made myself clear Mr. Reynolds? (Q). The other was what you would be earning from this deal. (A). Actually Mr. Reynolds, My earn will be $174,684 as the day my client was imprisoned for the children feedings, the lower school fee, I put them In and some shoppings, exceptional my legal charges which will be pronounced after the fund had already been in your care. So my earning is unpredictable for Mr. Reynolds. My friend I will advise that every single call you made and that you're going to make, should be put on records, for my record purpose. Therefore, I still request your direct telephone number to enable me to call you also myself. Thank you so very much Mr. Reynolds. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
28 March Dear Mr. Reynolds, Please I'm still waiting to hear from you, to enable me forward you the Consignment document code. Thank You. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
29 March Dear Mr. Reynolds, Please call me Mr. Reynolds. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
The Barrister is getting anxious...
30 March Dear Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Reynolds, please can you really tell me what's going on, keeping me silent will not solve this transaction, please do let me know your mind if you're still giving a helping hand to my client. Please I beg of you to get back to me and let me know your mind, and let us know our stand also. Thank you. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Time to set the limits on payments!
31 March Mr Chikuma You could spare $174,684? I envy you. My earnings as a United States Marine and then as a survival instructor were never that much. Here's a fact, my earnings as a survival instructor over the fifteen months have been a fraction of what they were previously. I had to dig into my savings to live, which reduced my ready monies to somewhere around $30,000. That's all I have. Malcolm Reynolds
31 March Dear Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Reynolds, I really do understand you, but I must tell tell you that I never spare that amount ($174,684) in just one day or a month, it was due to the expenses I am always incurring to get my client family on their feet pending when their father will regain his freedom from the Prison Custody. My friend, I would love to ask you this that, how much would you be able to raise out of the $60,000 fee, So I will know how much I can come up with as well. So let me know know how much you could afford okay? I know as soon as I we have this fund out, everything will be deducted first, like I explained to you earlier Mr. Reynolds. So please get back to me or you give me a call. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
3 April Dear Mr. Reynolds, How are you my friend, and how is family, happy weekend and happy easter. Please I want to know if you got my previous email sent to you. Also to know how much you could come up with, please this taking too much longer than expected. The fund could have been in your account by now. Please with generosity, do get back to me to know next line of actions. Thank you. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mr Chikuma One day or over many days, it doesn't matter. I wouldn't have been able to pay out $174,684. It might surprise you, but US Marines don't get big wages for risking their lives in our country's service. Then again, soldiers everywhere don't get rich from their service, unless they're mercenaries, and even then, it's the organisers who sweep up the big bucks, not the grunts. How much can I afford? That depends. 30K is possible, but it leaves me nothing in reserve in case anything goes wrong, and in my experience nothing ever goes smoothly. So... 20K maybe? Best I can offer. Regards Malcolm Reynolds
The first sentence is puzzling. What's he trying to do there?
4 April Dear Mr. Reynolds, Really? I thought the US marine get paid large sum to my own knowledge of understand, I have a friend in Miami, FL who gets paid large sum, well I am going to let you know that it may have some reasons about that, and if I may ask how long have been in marine service Mr. Reynolds? Meanwhile, I received your mail about what you can afford which is $20,000, then I will have to pay the rest. My friend please I will advise that you keep all records of what you spent because I keep records of whatever have been spending. So please, kindly contact the Finance Company with the DOCUMENTS CODE: REDACTED You will be directed accordingly. G36 SECURITY SERVICES REDACTED Ask for the release of the fund and directions, and please always give me an update when you hear from them. You can contact them front them above email in this mail. Very truly yours, Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mal is waspish in reply.
Mr Chikuma Your knowledge of understand is wrong, buddy! US Marines don't get high wages and we sure as fuck don't get golden handshakes, even after eighteen years of service. I don't care what your buddy in Miami said, OK? Malcolm Reynolds
Then the First Son chips in.
5 April Good after sir, I hope you and your family are well okay, I am using this opportunity to say a very big HAPPY EASTER to you sir. Sir I want to know if you and our lawyer are planning towards to help us get the fund release from the Finance House? Please sir do let me know, so you both can accomplish this release of the fund by next week. Please, I did love to read back from you sir. Thank you our God sent. Best Regards Michael Junior Ibuki First Son.
He gets short shrift.
Mr Ibuki Easter, Shmeaster, I don't give a damn. Listen up; important advice here. Things happen when they happen. I know that you come from a privileged household, had everything you ever wanted just given to you, life was easy, yada yada yada. Just have patience. Don't be a spoiled brat. Don't push and I won't push you. Clear? Malcolm Reynolds
Mal will contact G36, but not immediately. He wants to know what Chikuma was talking about.

Hmm, has the lawyer Chikuma sent you any draft documents so far? I am convinced that a business of this size is well documented and of course there is a Legal Contract that needs to be signed and some "original" documents that Mal would like to examine before paying that $ 20,000.

15 April Please have you been sent the payment information Mr. Reynolds? Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mr Chikuma Not yet. I asked for the documentation about the payment for my records as well, and that seems to have caused some delay; not sure why, it should have been a standard request. Malcolm Reynolds
15 April (sent twice) Oh okay Mr. Reynolds, I guess they got closed yesterday when you wrote them. So we should wait for them today okay? Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mr Norman I am rather puzzled by the way you're demanding payments to be made. What's the logic behind it? It makes no sense whatsoever! Too, there's also the documentation you sent. There should be the agreement of deposit which set the fee to be paid. What you sent doesn't serve that purpose. All in all, this doesn't bode well. Regards Malcolm Reynolds
15 April MR. MALCOLM REYNOLDS, I AM IN A BOARD MEETING NOW, I WILL GET BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SORRY FOR ANY INCONVIENCES AND THANKS FOR YOUR CORPORATION. YOURS FAITHFULLY, HARVEY N. G36 SECURITY SERVICES LONDON-UK.
Mr Chikuma I'm finding this company to be questionable. Their documentation is inadequate and that payment suggestion is laughable. Are we dealing with some fly-by-night operation?
Malcolm Reynolds
Harvey makes an offer about a document that Mal hadn't asked for.
15 April HELLO MR. MALCOLM REYNOLDS, MR. REYNOLDS, PLEASE DO NOT GET DEVASTATED ABOUT THIS OKAY, YOU NEVER MENTIONED ABOUT THE AGREEMENT LETTER WHICH WILL BE NEEDED TO BE PROVIDED TO YOU. SO PLEASE WE EMPLOY YOU TO FORWARD THE FOLLOWING IN YOUR NEXT EMAIL, TO ENABLE US PREPARE THE AGREEMENT LETTER FOR YOUR PERUSAL: HOME ADDRESS: COMPANY NAME (IF ANY): IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: TELEPHONE NUMBER: PLEASE AFTER ALL THESE ARE RECEIVED, WE SHALL PROCEED ON YOUR FUND RELEASE. THANK YOU. YOURS FAITHFULLY, HARVEY N. G36 SECURITY SERVICES
LONDON-UK.
Meanwhile, Chikuma is getting tetchy.
15 April Mr. Reynolds, No, why do you have to say that, they are the Finance Company in charge of the fund of my client Mr. IBUKI fund, So you don't expect me to deal with the wrong people, that's why I said always give me an update, to enable me enlighten you more okay, so what you asking for now is the agreement between my client MR. IBUKI and the FINANCE HOUSE right ? Please let me know, because there are limits discussion you have to say to the Finance Company in other not jeopardize or expose these only hope ($60MILLION) of my client, because is all they got to survive now, so please do let me know vividly. what you really want. We're both in this together and we are almost at our promise land, so let's us be calm and get things right okay? Well in respect of the account, you need to talk to them that you need an account that can take the whole of the fee, because I also personal will be making the fee payment of $40,000 in full and not into splitting. So please you should make yours too in full. Mr. Reynolds, I must tell you I had only just $2,000 to my name after I sent this $40,000, but I have the hope we're done with this business. After we pay them the fee, So you have to wait for their respond to know what they said about the Agreement. Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
15 April Mr. Reynolds, Please have you heard back from Mr. Norman, do let me know ASAP! So, we could join our heads together and reason, what should be done. Thanks. Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
16 April Mr Norman You asked for my details "TO ENABLE US PREPARE THE AGREEMENT LETTER" - That's not what I mean. What I mean is that G36 must have documentation from the time of the deposit that spells out the fees and charges to be paid. How you could read what I wrote as a demand for some "AGREEMENT LETTER" has me puzzled. Malcolm Reynolds
Mr Chikuma G36 is behaving very strangely. Mr George was talking about me sending him my details for an AGREEMENT LETTER, and I didn't ask for that. What's his boggle? Malcolm Reynolds
16 April Mr. Reynolds, My friend, the issues there is that they seems not to understand your demand, because I contacted them through the email yesterday and I was they had the Agreement letter which I am very sure of, please be calm and I guess they will have it sent to you today. So sorry for the interruption Mr. Reynolds. They promised we'll definitely going to get the Agreement letter. Okay? Barrister Chokai V.Chikuma (S.A.N)
Mr Chikuma The point is, I didn't ask for an agreement letter, and I don't understand what made them think I'd done that. Malcolm Reynolds
16 April I understand you Mr. Reynolds, let just wait for them. To get you the agreement letter from their custody.
17 April HELLO MR. MALCOLM REYNOLD, SORRY FOR THE DELAY, WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THIS ACROSS TO YOU SINCE YESTERDAY BUT WAS IN A CONFERENCE MEETING LIKE I TOLD YOU EARLIER IN MY PREVIOUS EMAIL. PLEASE FIND THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT IN THIS MAIL. YOURS FAITHFULLY, HARVEY N. G36 SECURITY SERVICES
LONDON-UK.
OK, now for something unexpected... I googled for James Ibuki, and found out something interesting, so I confronted Chikuma with the fact that James Ibuki hadn't been in prison for over four years. There is outrage!
17 April Can you please explain yourself better? Because I don't know why you said I was lying?
17 April HELLO MR. MALCOLM REYNOLDS, PLEASE DO LET US KNOW IF YOU GET THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT? YOURS FAITHFULLY, HARVEY N. G36 SECURITY SERVICES LONDON-UK.
Mr Chikuma When we spoke, you understood every word I was saying. Don't try to deny it. Fact; Michael Ibuki claimed that James Ibukis is in prison in the UK, and I have an email where you made a reference to "when their father will regain his freedom from the prison custody." Fact; James Ibuki was released from prison in 2016. That is a blatant contradiction, and contradictions do not exist. Check your premises, you'll find that one of them is wrong. I have multiple sources saying that James Ibuki was released in 2016, and only your word that he is still in prison. That is why I called you a liar. Malcolm Reynolds
17 April Mr. Reynolds, Please forgive my manners, I was meant to say he and his entirely family was incarsarated (House Arrest) for not going anywhere in the whole world, please forgive my manners, and Yes he got released December time, 2016. Honestly sorry about this, I accept your accused, that I am at fault my friend. Once again Mr. Reynolds, forgive my manners about the missed up. Chikuma
Mr Chikuma That is a massive retcon, and I can't accept it. Both you and Michael Ibuki were specific in stating that James Ibuki is in prison, as in currently in prison; not someone who was in prison. So, that being the case, the whole reason for claiming the money in G36 is null and void, so I have no part to play. I can't see it being any other way. Malcolm Reynolds
18 April Mr. Reynolds, Your name still bears in all Document in the G36 Finance House, so the reason you are still very active is because they have no where to go, that's why you have to help them get these fund out of the Finance House. So do not be upset in all this, you have been rendering the help from the beginning and we're at the end of the transaction already, so if you don't help them, then there won't be no one else to clear that fund because the Finance House, had already known you and won't be giving to someone else. I must tell you this, that you have the power right now to get the money out of the Finance House even without our consent, so please help them and let's get this accomplish on time, and I will beg you not to behave like the Italian man (Havelock Vetinari) who ran away with their $10Million after he paid the Finance House behind them. Please help them. Chikuma
Mr Chikuma Let's take this one part at a time. First off, it's not about if I'll forgive your manners; it's if I can forget your lies. Where I was born, Truth is seen as the highest virtue. And not only is lying wrong, but to be caught out in a lie is the greatest shame. That brings us to what you said here; "Your name still bears in all Document in the G36 Finance House" - that is because I assumed your good faith. But you lied to me. Trust given on the basis of a lie can be withdrawn. And there's this; " they have no where to go, that's why you have to help them get these fund out of the Finance House" and "if you don't help them, then there won't be no one else to clear that fund because the Finance House" - you've forgotten something! All that is based on a lie; the lie that James Ibuki is in prison! And he isn't in prison! He can do what he wants with his money. If he's a free man, he won't need me. Contrariwise, if he does need me, then something is very wrong. Finally; "I will beg you not to behave like the Italian man (Havelock Vetinari) who ran away with their $10Million after he paid the Finance House behind them" - it would only be fitting after your lies and deception. There's a reason why honesty is the best policy. One lie can destroy years of trust. Take your time in replying. Think carefully before you respond. Malcolm Reynolds
